Near the end of the first half in Indiana’s win over Louisiana on Sunday night, there was a frantic sequence that Mike Woodson will likely mull over with his team in the coming days.
It started with the good. Freshman guard Tamar Bates, despite being hounded, somehow knocked down an elbow jumper. Then, as a Louisiana player took the ball up the court, Jordan Geronimo poked it free from behind. Khristian Lander scooped up the ball and laid it in with his left hand.
Then there was the bad. On the following possession, Geronimo sold out for a steal and got dusted.
